Frontline

by Benny Boi   Mar 23, 2006


Here I am
Here I stand
On the frontline
Like a drone
Waiting for the command
The order is screamed
'Move up'
Now I run
With my allies
My gun is hand
The power to kill
I see 3 targets
Pull the trigger
Most rounds hit the targets
They drop like swatted flies
Now they are
Dead
There emotionless I stand
I have killed
For the first time
No longer a virgin
I drop my rifle
Stare straight ahead
There stands in front of me
A vengeful enemy
So many thoughts through my head
Should I run?
Take cover
'No!' I scream In my head
With out thinking it through
I scream
'Fire upon me!'
'Kill me!'
Raising his weapon he fires
12 Shells drop
10 Rounds hit
Now I drop like the fly
In a pool of my own blood
I smile
Then laugh
And scream
Now I see nothing
Lying in mud
Covered in blood
Now I am dead
